"Body and Soul Ft Amy Winehouse" song overview :

“Body And Soul” represents a special song taking into account the fact that it was recorded for the forthcoming album “Duets II” of the American pop and jazz singer Tony Bennett right before Amy Winehouse passed away, standing as one of the finest songs of her career.

The original song was written in 1930 with lyrics by Edward Heyman, Robert Sour and Frank Eyton and music by Johnny Green built around strings and piano.


The official video was released on September 14, Bennett saying that “Recording with Amy was just so beautiful, and I knew after singing with her what a true artistic genius she was because she performed with total and complete honesty — that is a very rare quality”.The proceeds from the single will go to a charity set up in Winehouse’s name.

Body and Soul Ft Amy Winehouse lyrics

[Tony Bennett:]
My heart is sad and lonely
For you I sigh, for you dear only
Why haven't you seen it?
I'm all for you body and soul.

[Amy Winehouse:]
I spend my days in longing
And wondering why it's me you're wronging.
I tell you I mean it
I'm all for you body and soul.

[Tony Bennett:]
I can't believe it
It's hard to conceive it
That you'd turn away romance ooo-oh

[Amy Winehouse:]
Are you pretending
It looks like the ending
Unless I could have just one more chance to prove, dear

[Tony Bennett:]
My life a wreck you're making

[Amy Winehouse:]
You know I'm yours for just a taking

[Together:]
I'd gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul.

[Amy Winehouse:]
Are you pretending
It looks like the ending
Unless I could have just one more chance to prove, dear

[Amy:]
My life a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for the very taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you body and soul
You know I'm yours for just a taking

[Together:]
I'd gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul.
